Counselors • Addiction Counselors • Psychotherapists Psychologists • Social Workers • Case Managers Nurses • Marriage & Family Therapists Mental Health Professionals

This seminar has been identified by hundreds of professionals as life changing, essential and exhilarating. Join Dr. J. Eric Gentry, recognized leader in the area of compassion fatigue, and take home evidence-based compassion resiliency and prevention skills drawn from the Accelerated Recovery Program for Compassion Fatigue. Learn self-regulation—practical skills that are critical to your being maximally effective with your clients and improving treatment outcomes.

For the past 30 years, research has been steadily accumulating to demonstrate that caring has its costs. We now know that working with others who suffer from depression, pain, abuse and trauma have negative effects on the caregiver—many of which are potentially debilitating. Attend this seminar and learn powerful tools (the anti-bodies) that are critical for professional resiliency and integrate them into your practice immediately. Additionally, you will leave with techniques to teach and help your clients improve their lives.

Let Dr. Gentry show you how to recapture your sense of mission, purpose, hope and joy in your career helping others.

Transform Compassion Fatigue: How to Use Movement & Breath to Change Your LifeBy Karl LaRowe, MA, LCSW “As caregivers, we cannot stop or block compassion fatigue, but we can transform it into something positive.”

Compassion Fatigue is secondary traumatic stress and is pervasive among professional and family caregivers. It is physical, emotional, mental and even

spiritual exhaustion that can result from absorbing and internalizing the pain and suffering of the people you care for.

Transform Compassion Fatigue: How to Use Movement and Breath to Change Your Life is your guide to specific, real-life solutions to address Compassion Fatigue. Discover how secondary trauma is absorbed and internalized into the body and mind, leaving you exhausted, burned out and depressed. Be introduced to the practice of FlowMotion™. Based on Qigong, an ancient Chinese martial art used to harmonize breath, energy and movement, FlowMotion™ provides real and immediate relief from the exhaustion of compassion fatigue so that you feel better now.

Buddha’s Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love & WisdomBy Rick Hanson, Ph.D.

Jesus, Moses, Mohammed, Gandhi, and the Buddha all had brains built essentially like anyone else’s, yet they were able to harness their thoughts and shape their patterns of thinking in ways that changed history. With new breakthroughs in modern neuroscience and the wisdom of thousands of years of contemplative

practice, it is possible for us to shape our own thoughts in a similar way for greater happiness, love, compassion, and wisdom.

Buddha’s Brain joins the forces of modern neuroscience with ancient contemplative teachings to show readers how they can work toward greater emotional well-being, healthier relationships, more effective actions, and deepened religious and spiritual understanding. This book will explain how the core elements of both psychological well-being and religious or spiritual life-virtue, mindfulness, and wisdom-are based in the core functions of the brain: regulating, learning, and valuing. Readers will also learn practical ways to apply this information, as the book offers many exercises they can do to tap the unused potential of the brain and rewire it over time for greater peace and well-being.
